Galindo's Coffee + Elixirs — Restaurant in Texas

Finally, a place that understands what an iced cortado is. I’m not sure what makes other places freeze or panic when my wife asks for an iced cortado. We’ve been hesitant to ask for it because of the experiences we’ve had at one other local coffee shop that just doesn’t seem to get it even though we’ve been there more than maybe 10 times. All of their baristas don’t really seem to get what we mean or how to place the order. Even the chain restaurants understand and can make it.

The kind lady with red hair and bangs understood what that was and was accommodating to make it.

Whereas in other places, they seem to want to put up a fit over why they can’t make it even though it’s essentially a latte with just a lot less milk (you just match the volume of espresso to milk). We’ve heard all sorts of weird excuses or reasons as to why they can’t make it, like “we have to steam the milk and it’ll be a weird texture” (???) lol. It’s iced…? Why would you steam the milk?

Anyway, we’ve been here three times and the staff is always friendly. The best part though? The coffee is good every time. We were shocked when we tried it and how good the espresso was. Not because we had low expectations, we just didn’t think it would be THAT good. Super happy we found this place if we don’t feel like using our espresso machine at home that...

Barista was very sweet and helpful. Small coffee shop in a busy but convenient location.

Tried the blueberry muffin iced latte with oat milk as it was recommended to me and it was great. Very sweet and you can taste the blueberry. Not sure if it’s real blueberry or flavored syrup but if it is a syrup it’s a damn convincing one and tastes like they muddled blueberries for the coffee. Yet the coffee still tastes like coffee and the blueberry isn’t overwhelming. 5/5

The maple bourbon iced latte with half & half was good. A bitter sweet coffee with hints of smoke. More like a smoky bourbon coffee rather than maple. 2/5

The lemon poppy seed muffin was dry and fell apart easily and didn’t feel worth the expensive price tag. 1/5

The beef empanadas were good but very small for what you’re getting so also didn’t feel...

Galindo’s Coffee and Elixirs is truly a gem in the coffee world! You can feel the passion and entrepreneurial ambition in every cup they serve.

The dedication to their craft is unmatched—not only is the coffee absolutely delicious, but the team is always willing to educate customers about the different drinks, flavor profiles, and brewing methods.

It’s rare to find a coffee shop that’s equally focused on quality and creating an exceptional experience for its customers.
